Heart Pine Flooring

This flooring is cut from long leaf heart pinebeams and 2 as salvaged out of pre 1900buildings located mostly in New Orleans butalso fromother areas in the south and on theeast coast. Antique heart pine’s color is abeautiful deep red with some occasional yellowstreaks. The grain is generally tight andrelatively hard.

The surface of the heart pine contains nail holes, various size knots and small age cracksthat give it the character that makes it so appealing and beautiful. We run the traditionaltongue and groove flooring, but our specialty is wide plank“dirty top”.Dirty top is a termused to describe how the floor is finished. This floor is installed with the original rough,dirty side up and then lightly sanded so that some of the saw marks remain. When a clearfinish is applied, the color of the wood from years of

aging is amazing. In the photos of thewide plank flooring, none of those floors are stained. They all have just a clear finish.

Pecky Cypress

Pecky Cypress is a unique lumberin that it has pockets or recessesin it that create a beautiful ceilingor wall covering. The peckylumber has exceptional color andis one of our most popularproducts for ceilings.

The cause of pecky has often beenwidely misunderstood.Absolutely no form of animal, insect or worm is responsible at any stage of development,and there is no possibility of the pecking continuing after the cypress tree is harvested.

Once the tree is cut down, the causative agent itself is destroyed and completelydisappears, leaving behind only the characteristic pocketing it formerly created.

Pecking in fact is simply the result of a natural fungus (polyporus amarus) entering olderliving trees through branch loss or fires that destroy the bark.
